From what I can tell they think crashing PCs is a sport. I come here every weekend, and every weekend I get the message that "the computer has a virus". Then I need to fix it, only to find it in a state of putrid decay a few days later. My best guess so far is that they use Internets Explorer, and click every fucking add about their computer having a virus they see thinking it is a real error message. That would explain these never-heard-of before 'virus scanners' I find every week.

Every time they say something's wrong you should format it.

I'm inclined to install Ubuntu on this PC, knowing they won't ever touch it again so they can't screw up on it either. They refuse to use Firefox because it is "highly confusing", yet they can't even tell the difference between IE and Firefox. (I tested this hypothesis by opening up the default page IE loads in Firefox. Lo and behold, nobody even notices the difference.)

All done, that was perhaps the longest scan I have ever performed. Hopefully the computer will survive the week.

my grandparents try this with me, so I replaced all of their virus scanners/firewalls/anti-virus/browsers with the programs I use. When they tried to give me shit I told them if they want me to fix it they are going to start using the programs that I know best and know how to fix quickly, else they can actually pay some other jackass $50 to come over and run a virus scan.

:damnit: :worship:

also, if you uninstall IE, install FF and then change the icon to the blue E I bet they won't notice the difference >_>
